blind to toxicity - minsung

chapter thirty eight

it was now thursday morning and changbin was on his way to science.

as their deadline for their assignment was quickly approaching, their timetables had been altered slightly to give them more work time.

before he'd walked into school, he had teased minho about the look of admiration dohyun had been giving him the night before.

changbin thought it had almost seemed as if dohyun was treating minho as his own son.

as usual, minho and changbin had waited for won-jae and jisung to pull into the car park.

they watched as won-jae repeatedly kissed his boyfriend's face while jisung was giggling, playfully attempting to push him off.

minho had pulled changbin into the building real quick.

as he neared the classroom, changbin smiled to himself as he recalled minhos face.

however once changbin walked in, he was confused to see the room near empty as students were leaving instead of entering.

"hey!" jisung smiled as changbin neared his desk.

"hey ji," changbin gestured to the room. "what's going on?"

jisung pointed over to the board and changbin followed his gesture.

['carry on with your research in the library, you'll have both first and second period to do so' - Dr Choi]

changbin let out a soft hum as he turned back to jisung as he spoke.

"i was going to text jae if he wanted to skip with me, but if you wanted to go the library i'd love to spend this time 'wisley'."he used air quotes causing changbin to laugh at his expression.

"nahh, come on ji we'll go the library, there's actually something i wanted to talk to you about."

"oh okay!" jisung smiled as he swung his backpack over his shoulder before the two walked out into the hall.

the pair soon reached the library, changbin held the door open for jisung as they entered the fairly empty room.

"so," changbin started as the two sat down at a free desk. "the group had this idea that if won-jae ever went to a party without you, one of us could come over to spend the night with you. that way you won't be alone."

jisung nodded with his words before logging onto his laptop.

changbin smiled at a huge collage of pictures jisung had as his wallpaper, some of jisung with won-jae as well as many of him with the group.

"that's honestly too nice of you guys," jisung sighed as he began to organise his work, "but you don't need to do that for the next 2 weeks!"

changbin looked confused at jisungs grin, "2 weeks?" he repeated, "how come?"

jisung turned to him after opening a full word document, "last night, jae made a promise that he wouldn't go to a party for 2 weeks! it was part of his apology for how he lost control."

jisung shrugged before looking at changbin, "i told you, he hates hurting me like that, he's like a different person." he shuddered.

the younger noticed changbin's hesitant expression as his smile faltered. "...what?"

"ji," changbin clicked his tongue. "don't take this the wrong way but... do you really think he'll stick to it? i know the guy really likes his parties. i know he loves you more jisung, but i don't remember him ever managing something like this before."

jisung thought about changbins words before nervously turning in his seat, "oh my god you're right..." he panicked. "do you think i was too harsh for asking him not to go for that long?!"
